志賀高原・一ノ瀬のシナノキ
Shinano (current Nagano) was named by this tree.
Papers and ropes were made by the fiber in the past.
This tree seems 800 years old, and the diameter of trunk is 8m.

樹齢800年、幹周り8mの巨木です。

Obviously the wrong egg for this tiny nest. I found the nest after a fall windstorm. It was not attached to the tree but rather the pinecone which was hanging from the tree. I hope the previous owner of this house survived the year.

The crown of a yucca plant against a granite outcropping. Note the mass of tough fibers splitting off from its leaves. The native American tribes used these fibers for pretty much everything for which you can imagine using fiber. Sandals, cloth, belts, baskets, ropes, and mats were all woven from yucca fiber.

A clematis seed head catching the light on a sunny afternoon over the weekend. Like Columbine, poppies and Love-in-a-Mist, these are some of the most fun flower seed heads to shoot.
